Hello. OK so, I live in Texas, I am currently practicing as a LVN, I knew there was a time limit for passing the NCLEX RN, which is 4 yrs after graduating. I had been studying UWorld and Mark K... Only taken the test 4 times and failed them all. So I called the Tx BON, to see when is the last time I can retake the test. I was told it had expired Sept 1, and now I have to redo nursing school or move to another state, that has unlimited testing. Take the test, pass, relocate back to Texas. Didn't really understand, I think as he was telling me, my mind was set on him telling me, my time has expired..can I jus apply for another states NCLEX but take test here in texas without leaving.
